My Carrier furnace has stopped working all together. I noticed that the red light on the control panel is blinking in a particular pattern - 2 short blinks followed by 4 longer ones. I tried to research what the different codes mean for this control panel but cannot find anything. Thanks in advance for any help@
SOURCE: Furnace wont run
First of all when you flip the switch, it goes thru a startup sequence. THEN it turns on the Igniter (notice the red glow). Then the gas turns on.
Now at this point check the idiot light and it should be giving you a code of 34. That 34 (3 shorts 4 longs) says that there was a problem igniting the furnace. After it cycles thru at least 4 times and fails to ignite all the blowers, then is when you get a code 14 (1 short 3 longs)
NOTICE what's happening with ALL the burner Tubes each time it attempts to ignite. If only one or two are running....then this is your problem.
To fix all you do is take out the burner Tubes, look for debris, blow them out (blow from the front where all the jets are), and replace them in sequence from left to right (the tabs overlap).
The Carrier Infinity has a control board that will flash out a pattern giving you a hint of what could be wrong. To find it, remove the cover off of the furnace and you will see a small round clear window. Look and count the blinks. Then compare that number to the diagnostic chart found on the back of the furnace access cover.
Let us know what the pattern is and we can help you more.
